Most, if not all, of the parables are relevant in todays world. However, modern-day problems of e.g. technology (tv) and so forth are not specifically addressed because there was no tv 2,000 years ago. None of the women were wearing miniskirts like todays women sometimes to, so there's nothing in The Bible that mentions that immorality. Yet, people were told to be respectful, told to be kind to each other, to be patient, those things and more, are very relevant. The parable of the Good Samaritan, for example is still relevant in its meaning, not specifically the words "Samaritan" and so forth, still if someone sees a very poor man begging, the example of the Parable of the Good Samaritan would be: be kind, give him money, give him a place to sleep and clothes to wear, even later help him find a job. In that way, its' also a parable that teaches NON-racism, don't hate other races: as the story goes, the Samaritan was a race hated by the Jews, but Jesus gave the teaching that a Jew can help the Samaritans. OK? So, it's still relevant, today. If you don't know that parable, it might be a good idea to telephone a Christian Church, and ask them for more information. Take care of yourself.
There are nine parables in the Gospel of Mark: the parable of the sower, the parable of the lamp, the parable of the growing seed, the parable of the mustard seed, the parable of the wicked tenants, the parable of the fig tree, the parable of the wedding feast, the parable of the ten virgins, and the parable of the talents.
{Parables
The parables invite us to reflect on spiritual truths or moral lessons by using simple stories or analogies. They encourage us to consider how we can apply these insights to our own lives and relationships with others. Ultimately, they urge us to deepen our understanding of faith and live in accordance with these principles.
The parables told by Jesus were earthly tories with a heavenly meaning in it. Like the Prodigal son in Luke. it is a story of a son who wastes all his money , and then returns back home to the father.. The father who welcomes him back, is God and we are the son. God is waiting for us to all repent.
No, Luke also records a similar parable, known as the Parable of the Ten Minas, in Luke 19:11-27. While there are similarities between the two parables, there are also differences in the details and contexts in which they are presented.
